Abstract
Concentric domain patterns resembling multilayered micelles and vesicles exhibit bifurcations wherein they only exist for sufficiently small dimensionless interfacial energies. The bifurcation of large radii vesicle solutions is studied analytically, and a crossover from a supercritical case with only one solution branch to a subcritical case with two is observed. Linearized stability of these configurations shows that azimuthal perturbation may lead to instabilities as interfacial energy is decreased.
